Tragic Death of Thomas McCrca.
Sheriff Evan* of E'ie county, assisted by
j ft »rdea McCrea aal others took a bitci
i of convict* from the Eri-s jail to the River -

just as Emsworth was reached two pris
oners, Darned Cronin and Schabart. threw
their ohackles from them and made a da-h
for liberty, Cronin breaking for the front
door while Scbubart attempted t • jump
thio-igh the window. which l-raa
cis bau opened at his request. Fi mcis
dragged Scbubart back and soon had the
handcuffs securely locked a/ain ft' arden
McCrea was sitting apposite Cronin when
he made bis break, but the prisoner w»>
out on the platform before McCrea reached
him. Cronin was crouched to jump when
McCrea cajg'it bim about the neck. Cronin
threw the warden over bis body and boin
men fell from thelraia together
The wildest excitement followed All
of the pris ners pprane to their feor., <»ud
the combined efforts ol the deputies ana
the trainmen were necessary to c .itrol
them. The bell ro[ e wa< palled, the train
came to a standstill, and several of the
deputies, beaded by Sheriff Evan.-, fasten
ed back.
McCrea and Cronin were lying beside
the track unconscious, but Cronin soon re
gained his senses. Roth men srere placed
on the train and at Woods Run the prison
ers for the penitentiary were taken off.with
the exception of Cronin, who was taken to
the Federal strbet station. The Allegheny
General hospital ambulance met the train
and McCrea was removed to th it institu
tion, while Cronin was taken to Central po
lice -'alien. Jtist as the hospital wa
reachud McCrea expired. Dr. S. S. Smith
made an examination of his injuries ana
found that the entire back part ol hn head
was crashed in, exposing his brain.
Al Central station Cronin refused to al

removed to the penitentiary, where he was
placed In tho hospital His collar bono
was br >ken, and he .us'.ained H serions
scalp wound.
Ho* the two men got their handcuff-
Joose cannot be understood by the oflLUi-,
as the., were under the closest watco dur
ing the entire trip. In some manner how
ever, they had picked the locks, for the
cufl > were not broken, and at a signal had
mado the dash for liberty. The only in
formation tnat could be got from the mei
i n tt>e matter was a statement from Cr >nin
who claimed that Schub irt had unlocked
his handcuffs TMs, however, is consider
ed imp ).-sibie.
CroiitG. and Schabart were the leaders ol
the must notorious gang of ear breaker.-, iu
the country, and their stealings amounted
to thousands of the roads in
and about Erie. Among others who help
ed di.-pose ol their goods was Erhart, wno
i« blind, and sold small articles ou the
s reet; Mrs. Giles, who pleaded guilty at
Erie of receiving stolen goods, and Mrs
Nuber, who Was convicted »a tlie sine
